Well, i have pocd so trust me i can feel your suffering and all your feeling right now, i know is not the same but something i do is telling me that my thoughts is only that THOUGHTS that can't define me, all got that thoughts just van u see a girl or boy who you find pretty dont make u a gay or bi, there is nothing bad about it youre just appreciating beauty! And if u got groinal response believe me is something normal, is part of the ocd, if you feel guilty and deeply in yourself know that you dont like de opposite sex is cause u got ocd, youre not gay or bi, is just your ocd

One or two days before I started school I was at a concert and I had a false attraction and wanted to cry but my suggestion is to surround yourself with some friends amd try to focus on something else I know its hard buut I tried to focus on something else like I invited my bffs in my house and started listening to music chatting with my long distanced friends and dancing.Also,I love singing and thats something that distracts me,so so something that you love,listen to your favourite song,watch your favourite movie and etc.It was hard for me too and I had many panic attacks but I tried to focus on things,I was crying at the beginning but then I relaxed a little bit.Dont give up,Its normal to have some downs when you are recovering Its a part of the process.You will get better,I promise.You are stronger❤️

Also I know I'm not suppose to say this cause I can be reported on here but I really want to crawl into a hole and die. Every time I have a ounce of happiness it is ripped away from me and im back where I began.

i don't know if this will help, but when i get overwhelmed with scary thoughts i try to sing a song in my head so i have something positive to focus on. another thing is practicing breathing exercises that my therapist taught me, you can probably search online and find something that works best for you:)

Can anyone give their experience on FALSE ATTRACTION? At this moment, mine has become worse. Soon as I see a male my anxiety shoots up, I can feel this in my chest and my OCD is telling me I’m attracted. But I continue to look back or stare and the disgust comes over me and my body shakes and I feel my face screw up. I can’t listen to music I use too or watch movies which was a favourite thing of mine to do. I just feel disgusted and not who I am when it happens. It’s like a different me. P.S. I had a very good week few days ago where I knew this wasn’t me and these feelings/ thoughts isn’t me.

hey guys, i am really really struggling and i feel like crying. evry day i get this feeling of sexual attraction to the same gender, and i get those feelings even just thinking about it now. i hste them and want them to go away but they simply won’t and it has me thinking that this is just how my life is gonna be like. when i was fully healed or atleast thought i was healed from the false attraction and soocd, i still sometimes got that attraction feeling, and i would force my body not to feel it. i hated it and was scared of liking it so i would like stop breathing and make it stop. it was only ever occasional but this is making me concerned now too, because i still sometimes felt that feeling when i was healed. now currently my main trigger is masculine girls, but when my soocd first started i had no false attraction or attraction like this towards girls, and it was all just in my mind like saying, “don’t look at that girl or you’re gay.” there was one point in my soocd where i was worried about being attracted to my friends, but i am greatful in the sense of i know that that is not true and my main issue is the false attraction watching videos and i have experienced it once in real life too and i hated it. please lmk what i should do or even if you can relate. i am sick of feeling th is way, and i am a christian too so this makes it harder. i’ve tried everything like accepting it, or trying to even say to myself yes u do like it but it always just leads to me being scared.
